Designed a few organizers to help out in the shop. 1st one is for Dremel bits and comm polishers.  11EE43FB-0D2C-4A1C-AAF4-45EF887335E9 by Bill Le, on Flickr Next is a rack for oil bottles. I try to keep them standing up so they don’t seep but seem to be constantly knocking them over. This should help.  9CD987DA-C6CF-44EA-8633-BFFA192F7F26 by Bill Le, on Flickr One of my favorite tools for keeping parts organized when overhauling a chassis is the vacuum formed AW tune up kit package. It’s great for laying everything out, separating front & rear brushes or springs etc. Decided to make one with a few minor mods.  C5A4C865-12DB-47C9-ADC9-F402C3123765 by Bill Le, on Flickr The first 2 are a couple of rough drafts made with scraps laying around the shop. They’ll suffice for my shop, for now. Planning to make a few tweaks to them and offer some for sale. |

Great idea, I am always putting small parts down on my work area and then can’t find them.

Please count me in on a purchase of all three! |

For my own needs, I would consider more space between the holes for the bits and of coarse that would depend on the size of the bit. When I try to make organizers like this, I try to figure how much room I need for my clunky fingers to grasp the bit I'm needing and what bits go where that will be handy to grab. Just my 2 centavos  . |

Just my 2 centavos . I tend to agree with Gale on the spacing. My desk is fairly cluttered so space is valuable...but honestly for my needs I would make a shorter or longer one work. It's your preference . |
